Coming Of Age

[00:00.07] Your face in fluorescent looks different in the daylight
[00:03.76] Like, was it a love affair or just a lot of late nights?
[00:07.35] Like, you had the speaking parts but I guess I was the playwright
[00:11.33] Oh, oh-woah-oh
[00:15.05] I couldn't escape you like the airwaves of the bass line
[00:18.44] And I couldn't erase you like a tattoo on my waistline
[00:22.10] If it was a first kiss, how come it felt like a snakebite?
[00:26.06] Oh, oh-woah-oh
[00:29.67] I wish I would've seen it sooner
[00:33.01] Why did it take me
[00:36.78] Ages to say it?
[00:40.65] I wasn't your cliché
[00:44.01] Oh no, this is my coming of age
[00:48.53] Oh, oh, my coming of age
[00:52.21] Oh, oh, my coming of age
[00:55.67] I'm quarrying new ground and I'm burning all your CDs
[00:59.09] Baby, I'm the Iliad, of course you couldn't read me
[01:02.69] So I'll leave you behind, but that don't mean it's easy
[01:06.60] Oh, oh-woah-oh
[01:10.22] I wish I would've seen it sooner
[01:13.74] Why did it take me
[01:17.58] Ages to say it?
[01:21.05] I wasn't your cliché
[01:24.54] Oh no, this is my coming of age
[01:30.32]
[01:36.60] I send my silence away
[01:40.39] Printing my blood on the page
[01:43.92] You stole my love and I paid
[01:46.98] But you couldn't keep what you couldn't take
[01:51.55] I know I made you the big star
[01:54.92] I let you butcher my big heart
[01:58.71] But it's my song and my stage
[02:02.72] And it's my coming of age
[02:05.49] Why did it take me
[02:09.18] Ages to say it?
[02:12.85] I wasn't your cliché
[02:16.14] Oh, no, this is my coming of age
[02:20.61] I wish I could've seen it, God
[02:24.26] I wish I could've seen it, God
[02:27.80] I wish I could've seen it, God
[02:31.58] God, I wish that I could've seen it, God
[02:34.96]
